Thankful for Our Veterans

In honor of Veteran's Day, we will not post an item to our Romance Devotional today. We'll resume on Saturday.

Today, we ask that you pray for and thank our men and women who currently serve and the many veterans and their families who blessed us with their sacrifice and service.

To paraphrase General Colin Powell, "Every day is Veteran's Day. If you see a Vet, don't only thank them, do something for them. If they need a job, or a baby sitter, help them. Do what you can to help in any way."

Here's a good article about the value of Vets from last Sunday's Parade Magazine by General Powell:
